Choo Jae-hyun Shines Despite Loss

Despite the team’s defeat, Choo Jae-hyun delivered a strong performance, securing a timely hit in the first inning to give Kiwoom an early lead. He finished the day with 1 hit and 1 RBI in 3 at-bats.

I didn’t care about the result of the batting position, but I wanted to concentrate on the training during this period, so I participated in the batting position and achieved great results. I wish to keep the good feeling now as long as possible. I want to contribute to the team’s victory no matter what. I will do my best to seize the opportunity. Choo Jae-hyun

Pitching Staff Gains Valuable Experience

The Kiwoom pitching staff also saw action, with starting pitcher Yuto Kanekubo allowing 2 runs over 2 innings. Jung Da-hoon, Kim Yun-ha, Yoon Seok-won, Park Jin-hyung, Kim Sung-jin and Park Yoon-sung each contributed an inning of work.

Park Jin-hyung Demonstrates Stability

Park Jin-hyung, pitching as the fifth pitcher in the 6th inning, recorded two strikeouts and no runs in one inning of work.

On the pitcher’s plate, I want to concentrate on fighting the batter. After repeated actual battles in the future, my physical condition will become better. During the spring training camp, the combat effectiveness analysis team made many suggestions on my merits, but after training according to these suggestions, my physical condition gradually improved. In the future, I will work hard to reduce the ups and downs in each game. Park Jin-hyung

Looking Ahead

The Kiwoom Heroes previously played to a 3-3 draw in their first game and are scheduled to face the Taigang team again on March 1st at the National Taiwan University of Steel Science and Technology Baseball Stadium.
